    In Java, every variable has a type declared in the source code. There are two kinds of types: reference types and primitive types. Reference types are references to objects. Primitive types directly contain values. There are 8 primitive types:

    • byte
    • short
    • int
    • long
    • char
    • float
    • double
    • boolean
